Lines of Beauty

Explore the expressive qualities of finely pieced lines. This workshop includes a series of design exercises, covering both improvisational and intentional freeform machine piecing techniques, with a view to completing two or more small (12x12in) compositions and building skills and confidence for larger works.

Thanks to @melbmqg for hosting Abstraction in Acti Thanks to @melbmqg for hosting Abstraction in Action in Melbourne last weekend. Together we explored abstraction in concept and in practice. The resulting compositions were inspired by a range of subjects from silverware to umbrella ferns; alliums to brick walls; Melbourne skyscrapers to Egyptian ruins; artichokes to Luna Park. Such fun!

I look forward to teaching this workshop again at @quilt_symposiums_2026 There are some spaces available and I would love for you to join me!

Our MMQG group was fortunate to have Brenda Gael Smith come and spend a weekend with us, opening our minds to all the possibilities of abstraction in our textiles, art & quilting.  It was a wonderful two days of colour, shapes, lines and trying to let go of all the quilty rules we’ve been conditioned with.  Many commented on how liberating the exercises were and we look forward to seeing some of the pieces completed soon.  Thanks so much Brenda! @brendagaelsmith #abstractioninaction #textileart #modernquilting
